Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JonahH3124 the sonH1121 of AmittaiH573, sayingH559, {Jonah: Gr. Jonas}
AriseH6965, goH3212 to NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, and cryH7121 against it; for their wickednessH7451 is come upH5927 beforeH6440 me.
But JonahH3124 rose upH6965 to fleeH1272 unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and went downH3381 to JoppaH3305; and he foundH4672 a shipH591 goingH935 to TarshishH8659: so he paidH5414 the fareH7939 thereof, and went downH3381 into it, to goH935 with them unto TarshishH8659 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068.
But the LORDH3068 sent outH2904 a greatH1419 windH7307 into the seaH3220, and there was a mightyH1419 tempestH5591 in the seaH3220, so that the shipH591 was likeH2803 to be brokenH7665. {sent out: Heb. cast forth} {was like…: Heb. thought to be broken}
Then the marinersH4419 were afraidH3372, and criedH2199 every manH376 unto his godH430, and cast forthH2904 the waresH3627 that were in the shipH591 into the seaH3220, to lightenH7043 it of them. But JonahH3124 was gone downH3381 into the sidesH3411 of the shipH5600; and he layH7901, and was fast asleepH7290.
So the shipmasterH7227+H2259 cameH7126 to him, and saidH559 unto him, What meanest thou, O sleeperH7290? ariseH6965, callH7121 upon thy GodH430, if so be that GodH430 will thinkH6245 upon us, that we perishH6 not.
And they saidH559 every oneH376 to his fellowH7453, ComeH3212, and let us castH5307 lotsH1486, that we may knowH3045 for whose causeH7945 this evilH7451 is upon us. So they castH5307 lotsH1486, and the lotH1486 fellH5307 upon JonahH3124.
Then saidH559 they unto him, TellH5046 us, we pray thee, for whose cause this evilH7451 is upon us; What is thine occupationH4399? and whenceH370 comestH935 thou? what is thy countryH776? and of what peopleH5971 art thou?
And he saidH559 unto them, I am an HebrewH5680; and I fearH3373 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of heavenH8064, which hath madeH6213 the seaH3220 and the dryH3004 land. {the LORD: or, JEHOVAH}
Then were the menH582 exceedinglyH1419+H3374 afraidH3372, and saidH559 unto him, Why hast thou doneH6213 this? For the menH582 knewH3045 that he fledH1272 from the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, because he had toldH5046 them. {exceedingly…: Heb. with great fear}
Then saidH559 they unto him, What shall we doH6213 unto thee, that the seaH3220 may be calmH8367 unto us? for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980, and was tempestuousH5590. {may…: Heb. may be silent from us} {wrought…: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}
And he saidH559 unto them, Take me upH5375, and cast me forthH2904 into the seaH3220; so shall the seaH3220 be calmH8367 unto you: for I knowH3045 that for my sakeH7945 this greatH1419 tempestH5591 is upon you.
Nevertheless the menH582 rowed hardH2864 to bringH7725 it to the landH3004; but they couldH3201 not: for the seaH3220 wroughtH1980, and was tempestuousH5590 against them. {rowed: Heb. digged} {wrought…: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}
Wherefore they criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068, and saidH559, We beseech theeH577, O LORDH3068, we beseech thee, let us not perishH6 for this man'sH376 lifeH5315, and layH5414 not upon us innocentH5355 bloodH1818: for thou, O LORDH3068, hast doneH6213 as it pleasedH2654 thee.
So they took upH5375 JonahH3124, and cast him forthH2904 into the seaH3220: and the seaH3220 ceasedH5975 from her ragingH2197. {ceased: Heb. stood}
Then the menH582 fearedH3372 the LORDH3068 exceedinglyH1419+H3374, and offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 unto the LORDH3068, and madeH5087 vowsH5088. {offered…: Heb. sacrifice unto the LORD, and vowed vows}
Now the LORDH3068 had preparedH4487 a greatH1419 fishH1709 to swallow upH1104 JonahH3124. And JonahH3124 was in the bellyH4578 of the fishH1709 threeH7969 daysH3117 and threeH7969 nightsH3915. {belly: Heb. bowels}

And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Because the cryH2201 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 is greatH7227, and because their sinH2403 is veryH3966 grievousH3513;
And should not I spareH2347 NinevehH5210, that greatH1419 cityH5892, wherein areH3426 moreH7235 than sixscoreH8147+H6240 thousandH7239 personsH120 that cannot discernH3045 between their right handH3225 and their left handH8040; and also muchH7227 cattleH929?

Out of that landH776 went forthH3318 AsshurH804, and buildedH1129 NinevehH5210, and the cityH5892 RehobothH7344, and CalahH3625, {went…: or, he went out into Assyria} {the city…: or, the streets of the city}
But the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 not, I am a childH5288: for thou shalt goH3212 to all that I shall sendH7971 thee, and whatsoever I commandH6680 thee thou shalt speakH1696.
Be not afraidH3372 of their facesH6440: for I am with thee to deliverH5337 thee, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Then the LORDH3068 put forthH7971 his handH3027, and touchedH5060 my mouthH6310. And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Behold, I have putH5414 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310.
SeeH7200, I have this dayH3117 setH6485 thee over the nationsH1471 and over the kingdomsH4467, to root outH5428, and to pull downH5422, and to destroyH6, and to throw downH2040, to buildH1129, and to plantH5193.
And saidH559, O my GodH430, I am ashamedH954 and blushH3637 to lift upH7311 my faceH6440 to thee, my GodH430: for our iniquitiesH5771 are increasedH7235 overH4605 our headH7218, and our trespassH819 is grown upH1431 unto the heavensH8064. {trespass: or, guiltiness}

For thou art not sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of tongue}
Not to manyH7227 peopleH5971 of a strangeH6012 speechH8193 and of an hardH3515 languageH3956, whose wordsH1697 thou canst not understandH8085. Surely, had I sentH7971 thee to them, they would have hearkenedH8085 unto thee. {of a…: Heb. deep of lip, and heavy of language} {Surely…: or, If I had sent thee, etc. would they not have hearkened unto thee?}
But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto thee; for they willH14 not hearkenH8085 unto me: for all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are impudentH2389+H4696 and hardheartedH7186+H3820. {impudent…: Heb. stiff of forehead, and hard of heart}

As an adamantH8068 harderH2389 than flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them not, neither be dismayedH2865 at their looksH6440, though they be a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004.

He that dasheth in piecesH6327 is come upH5927 before thy faceH6440: keepH5341 the munitionH4694, watchH6822 the wayH1870, make thy loinsH4975 strongH2388, fortifyH553 thy powerH3581 mightilyH3966. {He…: or, The disperser, or, hammer}
For the LORDH3068 hath turned awayH7725 the excellencyH1347 of JacobH3290, as the excellencyH1347 of IsraelH3478: for the emptiersH1238 have emptied them outH1238, and marredH7843 their vine branchesH2156. {the excellency of Jacob…: or, the pride of Jacob as the pride, etc}
